Results vary. Treatments are performed after an in-person consultation.
How it works
The device passes over the skin at a depth we set zone by zone: shallower on the forehead, deeper on old acne marks. Change builds slowly, which is why we plan 3 sessions about 4 to 6 weeks apart. The price shown is per session. Results vary.
What the day looks like
Numbing cream for 30 minutes, then 20 to 30 minutes of treatment. Your face looks flushed, like after a run, for the rest of the day, and can feel tight and dry for a day or two.
Aftercare
No makeup for 24 hours, a gentle cleanser and plain moisturizer for 3 days, sunscreen every morning, and no retinoids or acids for 5 days. Skip swimming pools and workouts until tomorrow.
Who it’s not for
Not during an active acne breakout, a cold sore or eczema flare, within 6 months of isotretinoin, or with a history of keloid scars. Your nurse checks your skin at the consult before booking a series.
